In Her Own Words
About her
Facets of me described by those who know or have known me (in no particular order): quirky, yet with charisma.. accommodating, caring.. oft-wise.. all-maternal, sometimes childlike.. and of good heart.
Love the warmth of the sun, the grit of the earth beneath my feet, being barefoot and bare-faced, childlike and carefree..
Accept me as I am, warts and all.. am uncomfortable with needing to impress or tick boxes before you deign to know me.
Adore hugs and smiles.. A deep sense of connection, of belonging, and of home, are important to me.
I yelp in the the path of those who aggress, control, judge, dismiss or seek to compare and contrast.
I wilt and eventually wither around sceptics, energy-drainers, attention-seekers and the self-absorbed; those who feel the need to be special or better than the rest; and those who love to chat.. companionable equanimitable silence, anybody? ;-)
Saddens me that money, time and the self trump everything else but it seems we're mostly all pretty much trapped..
About her ideal match
Your contentment, welfare and goals would be important to me and, more than just a companion to share your interests, I trust mine to be demonstrably important to you. Thus, beneath the social veneer:
Are you a caring, tender, gentle soul.. diplomatic, and accepting of others?
Do you like being in warmer climes.. an outdoor, nature & animal lover?
Are you dealing well with life's baggage; open and open-minded.. not busy erecting barriers?
Have you identified your true needs, and able to express them clearly.. can you hear and respond when needs are expressed to you?
Are you relaxed and at ease in company.. have you smiling eyes? I need a lightness of touch!
God forbid we actually hit the jackpot ;) .....have you developed the skills to work at 'us', to talk things through and meet half way.. no drama, no tension, no chess moves and so on?
If so, we could become mates in the truest sense.. life is what it is, shall we just go with the flow?
